Three trillion!

Three trillion cells I marshal each day
feeding them all while carrying their waste away.
God did give my body daily challenges, so true
yet, I've lived these many years and was never blue.

Ten years, twenty and now fifty or more
the potholes of life have become a bore.
Still, as I walk daily through many deep pains
I know that God supports me and watches me gain.

My soul, full of scratches and metal so torn
has made me a man now truly reborn.
Life in all its crazy and insane many ways
now grants me deep peace, in my later days.

On the next morn, I will rise and do it all again,
cells by the billions still on the mend.
I'll be ever seeking a purpose for Dan
praying that God has a really neat plan...

A poem by someone who will not quit his day job!

On lazy days, while I sometimes ponder,
I find myself on roads to wander.
As late summer sun turns to fall,
my feet carry me forward body and all.
Eyes wide open in silent wonder,
I greedily suck in such visual plunder!

God Bless all who live in the US!

On this day!


I'm never sure where I go in the world - my only beacon is God -  a very bright and shining star on stormy seas! And strangely, I'm very sure of His existence, whereas others are not...

I am going to Hell!


For all of those who sit
On their philosophical throne
There is hope and kindness
God is good and we are not alone
 
But value attached to real life
Concrete, steel, asphalt and glass
How far from the concept
Has true goodness passed?
 
Tell to the workers have seen their job pass
God may be all good and merciful
But to many people
He can kiss their ass
 
For hope springs not eternal
As he would say
In his arrogant way
How do I meet my rent today?
 
How do we keep God Alive?
When he seems to tells us
This all just jive
And have lost hope all of us
 
God tells us love and caring is all of it
But I for one have my doubts
And believe it is all shit
But I for one have my doubts
 
So we all search
Often in vain
With life pouring down on us a cold rain
But what to believe in
 
We humans do not know
Life’s often alone and black
As a cold, cold as a blizzard of snow
We find no solace in the attempted journey back
 
So Christ died on the cross
Gods only son
To save us all
Are we having fun?????????
